While I can't test this myself, the following does appear to result in a successful build using the same clang version:

Gerd,

I’m not sure if this was caused by my email client but your fix did not work for me.

I had to add a space after `ifeq` to get it to work.

I had been working around like this previously (I’m not sure about the portability of -Wno-unknown-warning-option):
